AWAKEN DEMONS Signs With TRUSTKILL RECORDS

July 11, 2009

Cesena, Italy's AWAKEN DEMONS has inked a deal with Trustkill Records. The band's new album, "The Mirror", will be released on CD and vinyl on August 25. According to a press release, the CD contains "10 songs of pure aggression" and includes guest appearances by Vincent Bennet (THE ACACIA STRAIN) and Karl Buechner (EARTH CRISIS). Both the European version of the CD and the vinyl release will feature exclusive and rare bonus tracks.

Commented bassist Nicola Lelli: "We've always been huge Trustkill fans, since the late '90s. Trustkill was a dream for us and when Josh [Grabelle; Trustkill president] contacted us, we couldn't believe it. Being the first Italian band on the roster is definitely a huge for us. Thanks a lot to Josh and the Trustkill crew, we are honored be part of this family."

Added Trustkill's Josh Grabelle: "I first heard of AWAKEN DEMONS because Nic was doing merch designs for Trustkill. One day he hit me up asking if I would listen to his band, and I was blown away when I heard the new album! It was crushing metal/hardcore and just had that sound that you wanted to just punch someone in the face when you heard it. Brootal!"

Look for the band to invade the U.S. in 2009 with a full tour kicking off in September as well as a full European tour in November and December.

AWAKEN DEMONS released its debut album, "From Heaven To Hell", in 2007 through Seventh Dagger and subsequently invaded the U.S. with their friends xAFBx and RHINOCEROS. They spent the better part of 2008 writing the new album and hitting the stage with FIRST BLOOD, FULL BLOWN CHAOS, AGNOSTIC FRONT, EVERGREEN TERRACE, SWORN ENEMY, RINGWORM and A DAY TO REMEMBER, to name a few.

AWAKEN DEMONS is:
